yeah let's do it Q number one, on what mile do you think I end up fainting on Friday's thing? I will say a shout out to City of Highland Village and all the first responders in Highland Village for making this happen for us.
Because if we do, if something does happen, we're in a centralized location where first responders can get to us quickly.
So if there's any concerns about that, my wife, who is listening to this, I'm sure.
And it is this, hey lads, would be keen that, I don't think this is somebody that's from Dallas, just judging by the first little bit.
Also for the next Q&A, my question is how to approach the hard conversations with your wife or partner.
husband you give us a little bit of uh an update on some of the stuff that's going on with uh with amt school now yeah so that's pretty rad yeah
and uh he just passed his final test with a 96 out of 100 so it's been really cool to see the shift and it's awesome uh like i know uh joel and a few other of my other firefighter buddies through the jujitsu community and also non-jujitsu community that listened to this have sent me a lot of messages after that episode that, you know, were very encouraging.
They're like, hey, let him know if he wants to come do some ride-alongs at our station.
We'll pour into him, help get him ready for when he goes back to the fire academy.
And for those that didn't listen, Aiden passed fire one, was in fire two, failed a test by a few points, got dropped.
And it was unfortunate, but I think it was also a good thing for him to go through and figure out like, okay, is this what I really want to do? And it is.
And so he recognized, hey, I need to study a little more intently, be a little more disciplined with his studying and preparation.
And I mean, he's been doing very well in EMT school, you know, had some harder segments than other segments, but overall has done very well.
know amanda and i are obviously very proud of them and so so is hayden cora nola and all of our other family and friends and so now that he's done with that then um the next fire academy i think that he classes up in will be in september uh i believe and so Um, yeah, next month we'll be going back on the fire Academy and it'll, it'll be good.
So I appreciate all the messages from people that have legitimately reached out and they're like, Hey, if I can help him prepare, if he can come by the station, do whatever.
